My favorite Thanksgiving dish is actually the day after Thanksgiving panini that Mr. Potts & I make. We use turkey, dressing (cornbread dressing oh yum), homemade cranberry sauce, a little gravy, a slice of provolone & a light swipe of Miracle Whip.
I can't pick just one favorite dish - Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday for a reason - love the food!
Cranberry sauce and sweet potatoes...
I follow you on my google reader.. I just started cooking for myself, its so helpful following you =)
My favorite thanksgiving dish is ....the stuffing.
I'm following you, too
My favorite Thanksgiving dish has got to be sweet potatoes...I love them!
I just twittered you!
My favorite dish would have to be all the carbs. Anything white and especially mashed tator tots instead of regular.
You know I'm a follower!
my favorite thanksgiving dish....does leftover turkey count????
so hard to decide but actually I will go with bread sauce...it's a british dish that we have with turkey - and it has become a staple of our British version of American thanksgiving...
totally exciting! chocolate love... yum!! favorite dish... HAM!! I know weird... but we always had ham when my grandpa was alive for thanksgiving... and I'm still bitter that we stopped having it after he passed. Ham is so much better than turkey anyway :D
Really cool giveaway for the holidays!!!
Of course I'm a follower (of you AND Moon! =)
Favorite dish - Cheesy, Ritzy Broccoli - So simple, yet so good!
I love stuffing. All kinds!
And I follow you on my RSS feed
I'm one of your twitter followers!!! thanks for the fun tweets!
My dad's potato rolls are my favorite!
The chocolate book really has me interest!
I am a follower. (That sounds so funny.)
Does turkey gravy count as a favorite dish? Because that is my favorite! Just poured over leftover cold turkey and homemade bread.
Oh, and I follow you!
My favorite Thanksgiving dish is stuffing. My dad's stuffing is insane! He put everything in it. Sausage, mushrooms, walnuts, apples, raisins, cranberries, onions, and I'm probably forgetting some lol. My husband hates it because he is used to his mom's which is just bread and spices. It is funny because stuffing is my favorite and his favorite but we both expect a different kind and no other will do.
And I tweeted. :) @DeliciousDish
Yay! Contest! Good luck to everyone!
I follow you.
Wooh, I'm a sucker for sweets. My favorite Thanksgiving food would have to be either pumpkin pie or the banana bread I usually make with my aunt at family gatherings. This year, though, my family is going to have a Vietnamese Thanksgiving. Maybe some turkey, but my mom said she'd make whatever I wanted when I came home, so she's going to make vietnamese noodle salad with grilled pork and then my favorite veggie dish of hers: green beans, tofu, and tomatoes in soy sauce.
Always love reading your blog and thanks so much for being so generous - not just in giveaways like this, but showing us different ways and things to cook.

My favorite Thanksgiving dish is the pumpking pie. I normally don't like desserts, but I could eat my weight in pumpkin pie.
I am now following you on Twitter (@Cooksbakesbooks)! My favorite Thanksgiving dish is plain sweet potatoes roasted in their skins for a really long time, until they get super caramelized. No sweet potato casseroles for me. Even just plain, they are like candy!
My favorite Thanksgiving dish is dressing - it's my mom and aunt's recipe and it's incredible - but I also love candied yams (they really are like candy!)

My favorite Thanksgiving dishes are stuffing with sausage, sage, and golden raisins or dried cranberries and a harvest bake that has golden potatoes and sweet potatoes in it with cheese. I read your blog often and am always inspired by it!

Thanks for the chance to win these great cookbooks!
I'm also following you on twitter now - I'm ddh77
OH, and my favorite Thanksgiving dish has to be the mashed potatoes...yes, yes, yes...the mashed potatoes!! I make a huge pot and when seasoned and 'mashed' with all the butter, cream, and even a little of the cooking liquid, I put them in a crockpot on lowest setting, dot with butter, cover and they're ready for the feast--no worry about how long they need to wait!
I tried to stumble it but it made my computer go all wonky! Sorry.
My favorite Thanksgiving dish is...Honestly, can't choose...it's my favorite meal of the whole year!! Roasted, spiced applesauce is pretty darn close to the top though!
Hi Reeni, My favorite Thanksgiving dish is Julia Child's Gateaux of Crepes. It's a wonderful layered dish with mushroom duxelles, broccoli, and carrots, each layer separated by crepes, and the whole filled with a custard filling and cheese. I blogged about it here:
http://www.kitchensaremonkeybusiness.com/2008/11/rosie-finishes-julias-gateau-of-crepes.html
I only make it once a year, for Thanksgiving.
It's a Hawthorne tradition.
I'm a follower, too :D
Oh Reenie, these giveaways....I've never won any, so I'll just keep on keepin' on tryin'. Here's my comment for my first entry, second entry, I love stuffing made the Italian way (on my 2008 November blog) and I twitter with you....so does that count for 3 entries? I dunno, you decide. But no matter whether win or lose, I love your blog and always will.....love, Roz
I have just found your page and I am so glad i did. Your recipes look wonderful!! I can't wait to start trying them. BTW if you couldnt tell this was a comment letting you know I am following you. =)
My favorite Thanksgiving dish would be the green bean casserole. Now if i could just stop eating all of the toasted onions before i have to put them on the dish my family would like this one too. haha
dressing - southern made with celery and onion and sage and cornbread...that's Thanksgiving to me. Thanks for the cookbook give aways

I love my Mom's cheesy broccoli casserole. I'm pretty sure it has a million and one calories, but once a year, it's worth it!!
Reenie - I follow you, but I have to ask why you ask such hard questions, I only can provide one favorite. In that case its probably stuffing, as I never seem to make it outside of Thanksgiving, or at least not often enough for my liking. I never get my fill
Tweeting about the giveaway. My twitter name is @cookincanuck
My mom's stuffing, for sure!! T-Day is just not the same with out it! Love your blog-- have been a subscriber for quite a while!
Butternut Squash Ravioli... with brown butter sauce and fried sage.
My favorite Thanksgiving dish, hands down, is stuffing. One year, my mum was sick with the flu and my dad took it upon himself to make the stuffing. He scoured through cookbooks, taking the best from several recipes, and came up with a simple, herb-filled, delicious bread stuffing.
Pumpkin pie for sure!
My fave TG dish is candied sweet potatoes. My kids prefer yams, but I make a couple of sweet potatoes with them, just for me!
AAAND, I tweeted ya! I'm @ncsuemme. Ok, done with my entries. :)
My favorite Thanksgiving dish is stuffing. I never commented before but I love your blog and thanks for the giveaway.
